• When you view marketing from the vantage point of the guerrilla, you realize that it’s your opportunity to help your prospects and customers succeed.

You can show them how to achieve their goal. Marketing is not about you. It’s about them. I hope you never forget that.

• Our analysis shows that, for the extreme hot weather of the recent past, there is virtually no explanation other than climate change. The deadly European heat wave of 2003, the fiery Russian heat wave of 2010 and catastrophic droughts in Texas and Oklahoma last year [2011] can each be attributed to climate change. The odds that natural variability created these extremes are minuscule, vanishingly small. To count on those odds would be like quitting your job and playing the lottery every morning to pay the bills.
